@everyone “No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.” (1 Cor 10:13)
This verse came to mind as I was reading through everyone’s posts. I’m thankful @dekreel…[Read more]

Wow. Guys, I am literally tearing up  X’)

@jane-maree

God doesn’t make mistakes.

So true. It’s easy to take for granted how we’re all masterpieces. Thank you for the reminder!

@that_writer_girl_99

As I was reading your reply, I started praying “Thy will be done.” I shouldn’t expect myself to be something. Who says God will make everything “r…[Read more]

@valtmy The opening grabs my attention. I felt a good sense of the characters until you introduce Lu Mo and Pan Kun. Then it became harder to remember everyone’s names. I think giving Lu Mo a distinct characteristic that the reader can latch onto would help that. You did this well with Muchen, I thought. I got a visual of him almost immediately.…[Read more]

@ashlyvye Thanks for the tips! 🙂

@dekreel Please don’t feel guilty for having different goals for your writing than other people. It’s fine to write just for fun or as a hobby. Writing with the ambition to be published one day doesn’t make someone’s writing more important than someone who feels the way you do. And God calls everyone to use their time in varying ways, and gives us…[Read more]

@aislinn-mollisong  YES I WANT TO DRAW EMBER! WOOHOO!

Ahem, sorry. *sheepish grin*  I’d like to give it a shot 😀

Ohh, unless you want Ari to do it…

@daeus  Ahhh, Oops, my bad X’D

Well, it’s still a good idea XD

@supermonkey42  I’m impressed by you going through all of the archives! Do you read every single post?

@valtmy  Sure! Mind putting it in record/suggest/comment mode for us? 🙂

@daeus  I need to read more! I’m in! Go for it!! 😀

And I agree with @spradlin — a chapter a week. I’m busy

I’m excited for this idea!!

Spradlin — Wait, you’re still here?! I though you left KP! 😀

@ethryndal  Have you done mine yet?

@daeus Thankee. *bows* Well, I tried incorporating small ‘good’ things and it’s been a lot let dismal lately. I think I just let Ike gnaw on dismal’ness’ for too long. XD

@sarah-anson I really like the italicized bit you said there. *nods* I agree. Thanks!

@anne-of-lothlorien  AHH those are great!

Waaaaait, did you copy mine? XD

@dekreel I actually had a character nicknamed Peri once upon a time. Her full name was Perdita. A few other suggestions:
Perrine (This is a French name, and I think it sounds beautiful.)
Persephone (Greek Mythology)
I also had the thought that you could look for names that don’t begin with P, but have a “per” somewhere in them such as Juniper.

@skredder  I’ve seen that movie! Unfortunately I’m pretty sure it’s her last name

@skredder That’s been one of my fears, that people wouldn’t stick around long enough to see her growth. But I’m glad to hear that seeing the character change helps to make them likable.

@sam-kowal That’s so interesting! I’ve heard about Likability, Proactivity and Competence before, but not Disability. I find that more compelling, actually. It…[Read more]

@ingridrd  Yes it’s a girl. … Can Peregrine be a girl’s name?

@rochellaine  That’s funny — I was JUST on that site! Unfortunately I didn’t find names I like :-/

@rochellaine  @jenali  @epicaddie2  @the-real-kapeefer

Thank you all! 😀

@waterlily  @rochellaine  @skredder  @ingridrd  @anyone

Peri can be a nickname, right? What are some names that can have a nickname of Peri?
